Hanging Scissors

The primary muscles being worked out are your hip flexors and the transverse abdominis, which are the deepest muscle in the stomach. Hip flexors work to lift and hold your legs up. The transverse abdominis helps in maintaining your posture, balance and stability. It also helps the abdominal wall inward with the help of the rectus abdominis and obliques. Because our transverse abdominis is being used daily in so many movements, it is imperative to strengthen the muscle through exercise. This can be done on the floor if you don't have gym access or a park close by. Remember to always stretch after your workout because if you haven't workout a certain muscle you can be really sore or get cramps. There are so many hanging ab exercises I love to switch it up.
